While it may be true that there is no real substitute for dairy-based sour cream, I would argue that this cashew sauce is just as enjoyable, and maybe even better that actual sour cream. I had made chickpeas in a tomato and tamarind gravy with spices from my archives that was rather thick — almost like a chutney — and fluffy jasmine rice, and after the first night of enjoying it, I decided I wanted to combine the two in a wrap.

I thought some sort of cream or sauce would nicely elevate the flavors of the wrap. My original thought was sour cream, but I didn't have any on hand, and as nuts often make a great substitute for many sauces and dips that are often dairy-based, I made a tangy cashew, lemon and vinegar cream sauce that is not only packed with protein, but also very easy to make. Just toss everything in the blender, whiz it up, and it's all set. It keeps well in the refrigerator for up to two weeks in a well-sealed container. I am sure it would be a lovely topping for chili and other dishes where you might want a dollop of sauce or thick cream, and certainly an accompaniment for other wraps. I enjoy serving my favorite refried beans in a wrap, and this "sour cream" would be just the thing for topping those wraps off too, along with a little hot sauce perhaps. Consider tossing this with a variety of vegetables for a nourishing and filling salad.
